Abstract:
Since it was first introduced, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has gained wide popularity and it is one of the most performed bariatric surgical procedures for weight reduction throughout the world. LSG is a simple and effective procedure for the reduction of excess body weight, but it is not without serious complications. We present a case of a 46-year-old obese male with multiple co-morbidities who presented with a delayed post-LSG leak that was successfully managed with endoscopic clips and tissue adhesive.
